QUESTION ONE Suppose that a market for tomatoes is given by the following demand and supply equations Qd = 40 − 2P Qs = −4 + 2P Where Qs, Qd and P, are the quantity demanded, quantity supplied and Price for tomatoes respectively. i. Determine the equilibrium price and quantity of tomatoes. ii. On the same diagram, draw the demand and supply curve, clearly showing the intercepts, equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity. iii. Calculate the consumer surplus, producer surplus and total surplus. iv. Suppose that the government introduces a fixed tax of ZMW5 per unit of tomato. a) Calculate the new equilibrium price and quantity.  b) Find the new consumer surplus, producer surplus, total surplus, and the deadweight loss? c) What is the incidence of a tax?

This problem involves solving demand and supply equations together to determine price and quantity. a. Consider a demand curve of the form QD=-2P+20, where QD is the quantity demanded of a good and P is the price of the good. Graph this demand curve. Also draw a graph of the supply curve Qs =2P-4, where Qs is the quantity supplied. Be sure to put P on the vertical axis and Q on the horizontal axis. Assume that all the Qs and Ps are nonnegative for parts a, b, and c. At what values of P and Q do these curves intersect-that is, where does QD = Qs ? b. Now, suppose at each price that individuals demand four more units of output-that the demand curve shifts to QD - 2P+24. Graph this new demand curve. At what values of P and Q does the new demand curve intersect the old supply curve-that is, where does QD = Qs ? c. Now finally, suppose the supply curve shifts to Q's=2P-8. Graph this new supply curve. At what values of P and Q does QD=Q's? Show all working calculations and label garph with…

Suppose that the market for bottled water can be represented by the following equations: Demand: P = 10 - 2QDSupply: P = 1 + 0.5QSwhere P is the price per gallon, and Q represents quantity of purified water, represented inmillions of gallons of water consumed.a) Calculate the equilibrium price and quantity of bottled water.b) Concerned over high water prices after the winter storm, the government sets a priceceiling of $2.25 per gallon of water. What is the new quantity of water sold in themarket? Use supply and demand curves to illustrate your answer, showing both theoriginal equilibrium from part a) and the new quantity sold with the price ceiling.c) Calculate the producer surplus and consumer surplus at the initial equilibrium priceand quantity from part a).d) Calculate the new producer surplus and consumer surplus with the price ceiling frompart b).e) How does the total consumer and producer surplus in part c) compare to the totalconsumer and producer surplus in part d)?

Suppose that Carlos and Deborah are the only suppliers of pieces of cake in some hypothetical market. Their annual supply schedules are given by the following table: Carlos's Quantity Supplied Deborah's Quantity Supplied (Pieces) ITT 20 30 35 40 PRICE (Dollars per piece) (Dollars per piece) 5 Price 0 0 1 2 3 4 5 20 On the following graph, plot Carlos's supply of pieces of cake using the green points (triangle symbol). Next, plot Deborah's supply of pieces of cake using the purple points (diamond symbol). Finally, plot the market supply of pieces of cake using the orange points (square symbol). Note: Line segments will automatically connect the points. Remember to plot from left to right. (?) 40 60 80 QUANTITY (Pieces) 100 (Pieces) 120 20 40 55 65 70 Carlos's Supply Deborah's Supply O Market Supply

The city of Cedar Rapids has a large number of video poker arcades.  The demand by patrons for the games (in thousands per week) is Qd = 180 - 4P and the supply is Qs = 2P - 30 where P is the price in cents charged to play a game.   What is the equilibrium number (quantity) of games played? What is the equilibrium price? Draw a diagram depicting the equilibrium in this market.
